Help with N244 Application CCJ - PCN incorrectly issued

Coupon-mad

Then ask the Airport Parking firm to send your partner £108 to cover the court fee plus whatever PEye will accept to sign and draw up a Consent Order or Tomlin Order.

Your partner (NOT YOU) may as well email PEye and tell them what happened and ask.  Then your partner will know what sum to ask the Airport Parking chancers to pay to sort this farce out.

It is possible ParkingEye are aware of the issue from a batch of complaints and won't want to peee off & risk their contract with Novotel.  PEye might set it aside without much quibble. Your partner won't know till they (not you...) email them.

A lesson in case you or your family/friends ever get a private PCN again:

ALWAYS COMPLAIN TO THE LANDOWNER CLIENT FIRST. Your partner (NOT YOU)  could have just asked Novotel to cancel it when you got the PCN.  This was your partner's PCN to sort out and a complaint to Novotel could have seen it cancelled it at the time with one email to PEye.

B789

Your set aside can be requested under CPR 13.3. This is not a mandatory set aside but at the discretion of the court.

However, do as @Coupon-mad suggests and if you get any resistance from PE, go ahead and file under CPR 13.3 and sue the parking company for your costs. The absolute main thing for you to do is get the CCJ set aside and removed from your credit record.

Thank you @Coupon-mad and @B789, I really appreciate the advice. I think we will go down the route of asking PEye to set aside, and then see where we are. You're absolute right, B789, that the imperative here is to get the CCJ removed from my partner's credit record. 
This is excellent advice, coupon-mad - I will certainly remember that in case of another similar issue. I know that we shouldn't have just assumed the matter was taken care of!

@gjmusician, did you get this set aside?
